Issue

  • When creating snapshot with the vSphere CSI Driver it fails with error:
    message: >-
      Failed to check and update snapshot content: failed to take snapshot of
      the volume e904b21f-740c-4a5b-84d3-306effb2ab6d: "rpc error: code =
      FailedPrecondition desc = the number of snapshots on the source volume
      e904b21f-740c-4a5b-84d3-306effb2ab6d reaches the configured maximum (3)"
  • Are there any limitations to snapshots with vSphere CSI Driver?
